Re: [PacketFence-devel] IPC mechanism in PF 5.2/devel
Louis, Thanks. Looks like specifically removing the packetfence-pfcmd and packetfence-config packages - and then reinstalling everything from scratch by running yum install packetfence --enablerepo=packetfence-devel took care of things. What I found weird was not that the path may have been misconfigured but that the actual .pm file for the package was MIA for some reason. At any rate, I seem to be making progress now. Thanks.

Hello Louis (and everybody else), This is just an update on the situation. I have tried running the code some time ago and then again today, having synchronized it with the latest code version in the devel branch, which was a whole bunch of commits. The symptoms are the same - the services are running but the configurator is not reading them. I seriously wonder if it is not the code that is to blame but something in the configuration. But what would it be? Any tips much appreciated, as usual. Cheers, Boris.

Hi Boris, I am unsure how you installed the devel branch. Here is my recipe: First configure the packetfence repository normally. Then install the most recent development build like this: yum install packetfence --enablerepo=packetfence-devel This will ensure you have the most recent set of dependencies. Then move aside the /usr/local/pf directory and clone the github repo in it’s place (either calling it directly pf or just renaming the directory after the fact). cd /usr/local/ git clone yourpfforkhere pf Then run make devel in the new pf directory. At the moment, the devel build may have bugs but it should install. We are working on 5.3 which should be out soon. Make sur you regularly fetch updates to devel as it is a moving target. I am running devel without pid issues at the moment.

Re: [PacketFence-devel] IPC mechanism in PF 5.2/devel
Louis, Thanks! There's a whole bunch of .pid files under /usr/local/packetfence/var/run/ I looked at the content of a few random ones and the PID's in the files match those of the actual running processes so at thefirst glance it would appear to be OK.

Just did that. Stopped PF. All processes stopped, all .pid files disappeared save for pfconfig.pid. Killed that one manually. Started the PF up. Same behaviour as before.
